Solo Road Trip ChampionshipsRoad Trips begin by selecting a destination and then choosing a Championship. Earn the most points (based on finish line position) over four races to win a Championship. With 28 Championships at each of 6 destinations there are 168 Championships to complete for Achievements. At 4 races per 28 Championships that's 112 races at each destination for total of 672 races. The only restriction is that the car you bring must match the Championship type selected at a Festival hub. Drivatar opponents will be scaled to a range near your current car's PI, and tuning is available before the race starts.

Online EventsIn Online Freeroam mode a leader chooses the event and sets the car performance class restriction. Online Roadtrip works like an endless hopper: players vote on the destination, which will feature four events randomly chosen from racing routes and playground game modes. A Perk provides extra votes for the destination selection. The Horizon Car Rental provides necessary cars to participate if the player does not own an eligible car, but the rented car can't be customized.

Playground GamesThere are two Playground game types in the style of tag: in King mode the winner is the one who has the most time being the only king, which is transferred on contact. The current King can't see other players on the minimap. In Infected mode each player remains infected after being touched, and the survivor with the least time infected wins. Current Survivors can't see the infected players on the minimap. Perks provide time advantages in these modes. At each playground game area there are four arena sizes: Small, Medium, Large, Huge. Locations:

Sisteron Abbey

Nice Massena Docks

Saint-Martin Aerodrome

San Giovanni Le Prince (golf course)

Montellino Tenuta (private estate)

Castelletto Industriale

Race EventsOnline race events use the same 78 Festival Routes used in solo play, with the addition of a 1 mile Drag Race at the Aerodrome in Online Freeroam.

Co-Op Bucket ListThe Bucket List events in Online Freeroam feature the same cars and requirements as in solo, but two player scores will be combined toward a target goal.

Under the Rivals menu tab and in the Festival Routes tile you'll find the six destination groups, each with their own set of Routes. Under each route there are the six performance classes: D500, C600, B700, A800, S1-900, S2-998. Any time a player completes a road trip championship event their best lap time is recorded for the class of car they used on that route and saved in the corresponding Rivals route leaderboard as a ghost for others to race. There is no car restriction other than class for Rivals routes. There are 78 total Festival Routes.

Forza Horizon 2 for the Xbox One classifies each car model into one of 28 different types in 10 different groups. (The 360 version uses 10 Division types). These championship types determine eligibility to sign up for Road Trip Championships. Arranged by game sorting order:

Bucket List challenges are found around the map and can be raced as often as you like. A car will be provided for free with the objective of meeting a speed target or performing skills before the timer runs out. Only the 15 events for an active Bucket List will show on the map at one time - go to the Bucket List tile under the Progress tab to activate the other list for the other 15 events. Although some of these events feature DLC cars, you do not need to purchase DLC packs to play; access is free for these events.

Thanks ManteoMax, you have done alot of work here and it is appreciated. It's nice to know what cars qualify for each event and what the events consist of being dirt road or whatever as that will help me choose what car I pick

The Gauntlet is a series of Monthly Rivals events open for October 24 only as part of a prize challenge. See the 10-24-14 Week in Review for an overview. Johniwanna is livestreaming from 3pm Pacific time at http://www.twitch.tv/forzamotorsport and has 15 minutes to run the events before they become visible to the public.

Bucket List announcement"Some of these new Bucket List challenges feature DLC cars, including cars from the Falken Car Pack like the Alfa Romeo 4C and the Lamborghini Jalpa. Here's something you might not know: You don't need to own the DLC packs or the DLC cars themselves in order to do these challenges! Even if you don't own any Forza Horizon 2 DLC, you can hop right in any Bucket List Challenge right away and take that car for a spin in the event as many times as you like. " "Today’s Bucket List additions bring the total number of Bucket List Challenges in Forza Horizon 2 to 45. Only 15 events are available at a time so, in order to see the new challenges, you'll need to switch your Bucket List category. To do so, pause the game and go to the "Progress" section. From there, click on the Bucket List section and then choose the category you wish to activate and press the X button. Once you are back in the game world, you'll see the new events on your map."New Set of Bucket List Events Now Available - discussion thread
